president obama with 60 million raised. the romney campaign has set as its goal about $800 million and given the fact that they have raised as much money as they did this past month and as much as we saw in the last month, that would equate to about 100 million between them and the rnc, the republican national committee. at this point they think that's a number they can hit. obviously they need help from grassroots donors as well. it can't just be the big money donations. >> this "usa today" poll shows that in a head-to-head match-up in swing states, president obama 47-45. when they talked about political ads, have they influenced you, 70% confirmed that it did. 10% saying that they haven't seen ads. 8% saying it changed their view. but i'm interested, peter, in what bill crystal said on fox yesterday pointing out despite the rough reports coming out for the president how he is leading. let's play bill crystal please. >> president obama's had three disappointing months but he's holding his own. if i were in the romney campa
